Then simply give those that you trust the information required to access that information. Can be done for free. For extra security you could have one "zip" located on one storage site with usernames and another with passwords stored elsewhere.

I guess the saying's true- they really have thought of everything! Not exactly a subject we all want to think about, but an excellent point.

Like, when I die, I'm going to CARE what happens to my digital assets? Would this have even made it to a post if it weren't to sell something? That's pretty crass. This is funny!

If the net is around in the same form as it is when I die I will eat my hat. Further more your family could just get access via your PC. Who doesn't save their email password in mail.app? My opinion: rip-off! <a href="http://www.twitter.com/Prydie" rel="nofollow">@Prydie</a> This is dumb really now most of us on-line types have 40+ years left.

What happens to your data when/if these guys go under? There is a reason why some "good ideas" haven't been done already, and I believe this "trust" issue will only be put to rest when a more longstanding, trustworthy company attempts this business model. At least moreso than Legacy Locker. Great concept … being a new startup and dodging the most obvious concern in their FAQ isn’t entirely reassuring ….

I've put all this information into a document, printed it out and then store it my safe deposit box at the bank that my wife and her family have access to.

I also know the problem they had until they got access to his account. My cousin's son was in his early forties. He was perfectly healthy until he died of cardiac arrest. You are right when you say people should think about it. It would of been easier for my cousins if their son had done something like that I think that its very important unfortunately my cousin’s son died and I know the comfort that they found in reading what his friends wrote about him on Facebook.
